      @brianmatias I'm glad you noted in your original video to select *only* the "masks" when preparing to save as a preset. That's an important step in keeping the preset for sky instead of applying other develop panels.

    A valuable enhancement to consider is subtracting the inverted sky 2 to 3 times, which, based on my experience, can significantly improve the quality of your mask. With each subtraction iteration, you are likely to observe a gradual reduction in unwanted bleed, thereby refining the overall outcome.

    • @SignatureEdits
      @SignatureEdits  Год назад

      Definitely worth a shot! I found in my tests that most of the time the first invert is the sweet spot, but on images it doesnt do enough, for sure you can stack and see what happens!

    • @MFP_Photography
      @MFP_Photography Год назад +1

      I have been using this technique for several months. You will find the law of diminishing returns applies to the repeated inverted sky subtraction. You will end up with areas you want to keep in the mask as getting masked out. Generally, I find more than 3 inverse subtractions does more harm than good. Like I mentioned I have been using this method for more than 6 month so I am speaking from experience :) .

  • @photonomist6345
    @photonomist6345 Год назад +13

    All good and I agree that this will have useful applications. But I find in many landscapes that the bleed is intelligent so that when a sky dehaze (for example) is made, there is NOT a sudden and unatural border. I have been certain that this is an amazing feature by design. Of course, it works for some (eg with a hazy background) and not for others, so I grant that this approach you demonstrate will have a lot of uses (I would imagine often with selecting subject or certain kinds of object). Thank you for the video.

    • @SignatureEdits
      @SignatureEdits  Год назад +1

      You’re spot on! Im sure the AI has a built in feather setting just like in Ps masking, except in Lr we arent able to adjust it.
      Thanks for the comment!!

    • @photonomist6345
      @photonomist6345 Год назад

      @@SignatureEdits Thank you. But I think it is not editable because it isn't a straightforward feathering but is responding to the specific conditions at the edge (but maybe I am wrong). In reality I am often so impressed with how natural the edits are, if not overdone, which with a clean break might make the haziness etc. just below the horizon seem odd when it has been reduced by the sky having been dehazed. As you say though every photo is different and having the manual fix as you describe is a great additional string to the bow; and easy and quick once you practise a bit!

    • @Mikegaryhouse
      @Mikegaryhouse Год назад

      I think you’re right, but I also think it still bleeds too much. The select subject examples in the video are a good example. It doesn’t remove all the bleed and potentially leaves enough for that graduation between the layers.

    Absolutely love the toolkit. It has sped up my workflow so much, so thank you for that!
    After watching this video, I immediately went and grabbed the updated toolkit files, so I wouldn't have to make the refined presets myself. I was hoping the other style/masking presets would have been updated with refined selections too, but apparently not. Would be a nice addition to the toolkit as a whole, but it's no biggie to refine the masks manually. Still saving tons of time with it!

    I saw this when Brian first shared it a while back. On his more recent video someone had commented about doing an intersect with sky instead of doing a subtract and invert. I gave this a try on a photo and seemed to get the same result. I haven't done extensive testing to see if one is better than the other. Seems to save at least one click by doing the intersect.

  • @nothingtobeconcernedabout7477
    @nothingtobeconcernedabout7477 Год назад

    Makes sense. It works with a smaller selection and not the whole photo to analyze and on top of it it probably is coded to not subtract 100% of the parent mask. The issues you highlight are that subsequent uses of the mask is forced to remove a certain amount of the parent mask. If the first mask was good enough a subsequent map is forced to take too much from the parent mask making it effectively worse.
    So first mask determines the broad subsection of the photo that represents the thing you want to mask.
    The second pass refines it because it can dedicate more power to refining a smaller area than the whole photo and it is forced by it's algorithms to find something as to not reselect 100% of the parent mask.
    Third pass is where the issues could come since the algorithms are forced to find something that is not 100% of the parent selection. It could remove actual sky since it has to create enough difference to the parent selection.

    Using Brians Technique for a while now, I believe, that Adobes bleeding Masks are better if your edges have no sharp focus.

      I hope so, but I’m not so sure! I’m pretty sure it’s been like this for a long time, the only differences now I know what to do when it happens 😅
      my theory is that just like in Photoshop when you have feather and sensitivity controls over your mask, Lightroom has something like that built into the AI settings that we can’t adjust and the folks at Adobe decided works best for most images.
      perhaps every time we edit an image, it’s training the algorithm, or perhaps, like you say this trick helps it figure out what’s going on better… I guess we’ll wait-and-see :)

      Still though, I’d loooove to have a fader to dial it in myself!

    Maybe my images aren't as "complex" but I have never experienced this much bleed in using any of those options. Every time I've used the "Select Sky" option, it does a darn good job. And the only thing I deal with when using "Select Subject" is it gets a bit fuzzy around the feet, but my adjustments are generally so subtle it isn't noticeable anyway.

      Super interesting! Honestly I thought the same with my images up until I zoomed in and reaaaaally looked close like in this video! My hunch is your images probably have this too, but like you said for subtle adjustments it’s likely you wouldnt ever notice

    I just puchased the full bundle and have installed. However, there are no quick masks in the AI preset bundle and that was one of the main reasons I bought this bundle. Can you email them to me ? Thanks 👍

    looked good as presented but when I tried it caused unacceptable halos. Perhaps the bleed is intentional in order to prevent an unnatural looking cut off between adjustment areas? Perhaps Adobe knows what it is doing?🤔

    • @SignatureEdits
      @SignatureEdits  Год назад +1

      Agreed John! As I showed later on, it’s a mix of whether or not it works. Sometimes adobes version is MUCH better, while other times this trick cleans things up a lot.
      Im sure adobe put the feather in on purpose to get more consistent results - The only thing I wish is we had a slider to control it :)

    • @johnwootton5629
      @johnwootton5629 Год назад

      Yeah fair enough, another way of achieving the same result though is to simply intersect the first sky mask with another sky mask. This can be done very easily if needed and is quicker than making a preset that you find doesn’t work well and then having to start from scratch 🤷‍♂️
      When compositing it is necessary to “match colour” in order to make the composite look natural. I truly believe the feather is necessary to blend that necessary “match colour” between areas of differing adjustments.
      Thanks for the info though, I’ll keep trying it in various scenarios 👍

  • @Eigil_Skovgaard
    @Eigil_Skovgaard Год назад +5

    Real life is not digital, and real blue skies are widely reflected by the surroundings, and Maybe Adobe's developers took that into account. This effect is typical for all other dominant color contrasts. One of the nasty ones is when grass creeps up on white dressings and green is reflected from faces, because green is so dominant. My point is that some spill is natural. Sucking it totally out of the surroundings may look good for the contrast but not for the authenticity. But I salute Brian for digging out this reverse method. It's useful for sure, with care.

    • @SignatureEdits
      @SignatureEdits  Год назад

      You bet Eigil! There is a time and place where this is helpful, they key is knowing when to use it (and when not to!)

    • @johnwootton5629
      @johnwootton5629 Год назад +2

      yeah I tried this and came to the same conclusion. finding its leaving me with unacceptable halos so i think adobe knows the bleed is necessary to make it look natural. I'll stick with the conventional workflow I think.
